I'll reuse them in Legend 2, coming this summer, June 2015, a sequel set 50 years after the alternate (original?) storyline where Xu Jing was imprisoned beneath the palace dungeons following the assassination in Youxia.

So, I finished reading this. Quite a fun read all around, although sometimes it was a bit hard to keep track of the plot because of these annoying Chinese names thrown everywhere. Jing is certainly the epitome of "Chaotic Good" alignment. In fact, most of the cast was awesome, with many being larger-than-life characters or outright walking forces of nature. Hell, even the aristocratic bro, in spite of his state as blue-blooded scum was quite sympathetic.

Still, I found some details that apparently were forgotten/resolves somewhere else. For example: What happened with Cao'er's warning that she could go crazy if she saw someone getting hurt? And where did that little girl with immortal powers appear from?

Lastly, I wasn't aware that high-level Wuxia battles were so similar to DBZ fights. That, or people in this setting grow stronger the older they get (regardless of their physical and mental state).

I've been going through this again, and there are plenty of mysteries that I don't think we ever ended up figuring out. How the bandit at the start knew us to be a dog of the court, who the decrepit secret service guy we snuffed out was precisely working for, what in the world the Boack Dragon Society was up to, that all-seeing astrologer that it seems we were fated not to meet... it's incredible to me that treave could output such a vast body of work and still give the impression of a world that we couldn't hope to experience in full.

You can't help but wonder what it would have ended up like if we'd tagged along with the fire cult or not gone through with the rollbacks, or any number of other pivotal decisions that altered the course of the whole thing. That doesn't even get into alternate starting characters! This just gets more incredible to look back on over time, and I can't say that about the bulk of what I read.

The recommendation letter from Shun with the seal of Imperial Court, plus a lot of money.
The guy was working for the chief eunuch (who was aligned with Shun's rival, I think?) Though he was pursuing Yunzi to the haunted manor on behalf of Mao Sanjiao, who was behind the Wufushan attack. I have no idea what his connection with Sanjiao was (though we know Mao was a liaison with the secret police) and how it benefitted the eunuch. Maybe the goverment felt threatened by the Fire Cult as well?
Black Dragon Society plotline I have no clear idea about, though I assume they were mercenaries who were bought off by Nies to develop an ultimate martial drug. It was later used for a false flag operation with Yang Xue and lead to Shun's attempt to persecute the orthodox community, which we thwarted. Ultimately, they were pawns in the schemes of others, and they met an appropriate end.
Astrologer was supposed to help us if we PRAYED, but we missed him, and treave is being tight-lipped on the potential nature of his help.

That's 'if she hurt someone'. She never did, though, as far as we are aware. We managed to dodge these situations.

Didn't she throw needles at people occasionally? I guess these didn't count by virtue of being "blunt weapons" or something. Also, her magical eyes were somewhat forgotten as well. I don't remember if she freaked out when she noticed Jing's lack of pressure points, but that would most likely have caused a strong reaction if she did.

It was a great pity that we went ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM FUCK against the ol' Spear of Mainlyness, which turned out to have been the secret shortcut to the endgame. The other path was epic as fuck, with corrupted Orthodox schools vs Broschools + Fire Temple vs Spear of Mainlyness, with the Broemperor manipulating things from behind the scenes.

No degeneracy could hold up against religious fanatism! Degenerates are weak and fragile,they thrive trough temptation and weak words,fanatics on the other side don't give a shit about such things,they prefer to flagellate themself and behead the enemies of their fate. It is shame that our religion had lost its zeal.

just as I had intuited, choice D was a way to unlock our latent talent (damn I just discovered a new palindrome) for instant transmission. now whenever we need to get somewhere quick we just drink a bottle of expensive brandy until we pass out and we will wake up at our desired destination.

God, I actually love this. I'm actually a fan of Blizzard again because they're such CUNTS. They got every Diablo fan in a big auditorium just to make them watch a snuff movie of their franchise being brutally murdered with a shovel. Do you know the best part of this? They actually give Blizzcon goers a "loot bag" sort of thing which has a bunch of little souvenirs to remind you that you were there. Hahahaha, every Diablo fan that just got their heart ripped out of them by Kano a few hours ago has something to always remember this event by.
Well done, Blizzard. This was a master troll. What madmen. Fuck those losers.

All those who share the blood of germans without sufficient sublimation with the spirit of mediterranean civilization are destined to become harbingers of the apocalypse and destroyers of Christian culture.

Sawyer's hipster imperialism, rape apologism and longing for failed austrian leadership is but a reflection of that.

21st century anti-globalism is THE greatest popular uprising against the rich and powerful ever known to men. Communist shitstains promised to fight the "evul capitalists", only killed a bunch of random people for no reason and eventually became the bitchboys of the Globalist Cabal that is composed entirely of the fucking 1%. Ours is a fight of the common men and women against the people who control all the media, the entertainment industry, the banks, the megacorporations, the international bureaucracy (EU/UN/OEA etc) and probably more stuff I forgot about. Only God is on our side and he is all that really matters.

Not hugging Cao'er down the whole way is one of my personal mistakes here that I greatly regret, same as not dressing Jing up as the bride and attempting to convince you bros not to approach the imposing shirtless guy on the boat. Attempting to convince folks to butcher the Minamotobros was also not my finest hour.

Well, 'also votes' do not work. They add to the more popular option, so your vote went for A1 instead of C1, which caused C option to fail and its voters to flop to B2. Which caused you to not have any laxatives at all because you voted for laxatives.

Because she was. And she went as far as to acquire immortality to be together with her beloved no matter how long it would take*. Too bad she didn't consider to use that power to rule the world from the shadows or something more ambitious.

*She never got pregnant, though, right? Also, what happened with not-Mulan's bastard son "acquired" from Jing?
